Saudi Arabia and the US have a partnership that\'s been in the making for over seven decades. It started after World War II and survived the Iranian Revolution, the Cold War, the Gulf War, September 11, and the proliferation of conflicts across the Middle East. This whole time, the US has been selling weapons to Saudi Arabia -- now its number one customer. Saudis bought bombs, tanks, guns, and planes over the years to defend themselves from various threats. The US supplied those weapons because the Saudi’s threats have usually been a threat to the US as well.
Today, there\'s a shift in the relationship. Saudi Arabia’s intervention in Yemen has created the worst humanitarian disaster in the world - and thrown the Middle East into chaos. The problem is, the Saudis are using US bombs to do it.

LYRICS:
Saudis in Audis...
Hey there hotty, hey there cutie
want a ride in my Audi?
I drive fast, in high speed moody
passing like I am Doug Flutie
It has everything you need
imitation leather seat
heater so it don\'t get colder
even has a mustache holder
Headlight so I see at night
cup holder for my sprite
it is flex fuel, don\'t you know
runs on gas and on cologne
you think that my judgment\'s cloudy
you say that it\'s pronounced \"Audi\"
hit mute button, quit your fussin
it\'s car, it\'s not belly button
Saudis in Audis...
I have mustache, I have shades
I have shiny new A8
My Audi is so sick
even is my profile pic
Crank the AC cuz it\'s hot
driving crazy through Riyadh
GPS so we go places
to AX and the oasis
Drive to Emirates tonight
shopping for some stuff Dubai
drive Audi out in Amman
even we go to Cinnabon
Up to Jeddah, down to Mecca
bet I never drive a Jetta
gas on empty, don\'t use a frown
Saudis just put hose in the ground

Description:
We are obsessed with the lifestyles of the rich. And now with Instagram and other forms of social media, we get an up close and personal look at their lives like never before. Here is a look Inside the Lives of the Rich Kids of Saudi Arabia.
The majority of the money in Saudi Arabia comes from oil! The country is filled with it. Oil has made the royal family in the country one of the richest royal families in the world. In fact, the amount of oil in one field in Saudi Arabia could fill millions of Olympic Pools! Insane, right?
The rich in the area love to have exotic pets. Dogs, cats, and bunnies are just too tame for this rich bunch. They’d rather have lions and tigers on leashes as household animals. What better way to flaunt your wealth than to have predators in the animal kingdom as your pets?
But there is one thing that sets the rich kids of this country apart from those in others. And that is the strict restrictions that people who live in Saudi Arabia have to endure. From not being able to drive as a woman to not being able to go to public movie theatres, there are some rights that even money can’t buy.

This explosive film reveals the hidden reality inside the west’s close ally Saudi Arabia. With unprecedented access to an underground network of young activists and footage from previously unseen corners of life – from prisons and public punishments to defiance of the regime on the streets – this film uncovers a society that despite severe oppression is shifting under the feet of its rulers.
Combining shocking undercover footage and heart-breaking personal stories with interviews from high-level British and American policy makers it asks whether the time has come to reassess our relationship with Saudi Arabia.

-quit my job before getting another 6 month visa

-but I made the decision to come back to the USA and be in nature, etc.
-it was an amazing experience because it \"opened my eyes\" so an entirely new world!
-almost all the people I met in saudi were super nice and welcoming (thank you!)

-maybe I\'ll be back some day to visit and see more of the Middle East!
Well, this really didn\'t need to be a video.. because all I really have to say is: I quit my job early because I didn\'t like the job and I wanted to come home. I wanted to be around nature and I wanted to feel more free. You can obviously think whatever you want about this. For me, it was the right decision.
Maybe I will do a summary video of my experience in Saudi Arabia. I realize this video is quite general and brief... so yeah, perhaps I will say more in a different video. For now, this will suffice. Lots of people have been asking, so here I am answering. I was living in Saudi for about 5 months, maybe 6 months. No, I do not have any plans of returning to Saudi any time soon...... but I will let yall know if I do :)Thanks for your support.
